Item Knowledge of Management of Health Waste in COVID-19 for Environmental Impact(Instituto de Tecnologia e Educação Galileo da Amazônia, 2022) SILVA, Pollyana da Conceição Andrade; CAMPOS, Paola Souto; LEITE, Jandecy CabralThe COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted healthcare waste (HCW) generation, raising concerns about proper management. This study investigated healthcare professionals' knowledge of waste management during the pandemic and its environmental impact. The research was conducted with 55 healthcare professionals in a public hospital in Manaus, Amazonas. The results showed that although most respondents recognized the existence of protocols for handling contaminated waste, many were unaware of the Healthcare Waste Management Plan (HCWMP) and had not received adequate training on the subject. The lack of knowledge may compromise proper waste disposal and increase negative environmental impacts.Item Aspect and Impact Survey in Chemistry Laboratory(Instituto de Tecnologia e Educação Galileo da Amazônia, 2023) SILVA, Waldomiro S.; CAMPOS, Paola SoutoThe growing concern with environmental management has led several institutions, including the Federal Institute of Amazonas (IFAM), to consider methodologies related to the Environmental Management System (EMS), such as ISO 14001. This study conducted a survey of environmental aspects and impacts in the Organic Chemistry Laboratory of IFAM – Campus Manaus Centro (CMC), using the interaction matrix and the FMEA method for failure analysis. The results indicated that 90% of the analyzed impacts were classified as significant risks, including failures in the exhaust system and the absence of a Waste Management Plan (WMP). The study recommends implementing a WMP, maintaining exhaust equipment, and training users to mitigate environmental impacts and health risks.
